Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP94463) and 1 other source
Doretha Marie Graves, a 26-year-old woman, was last seen on April 3, 1989, in Dallas, Texas. At the time of her disappearance, Doretha was described as 5'4" tall, weighing around 150 pounds, with black hair. The circumstances surrounding her vanishing remain unclear, and little evidence has surfaced in the years since her disappearance. Her case remains unsolved and is considered a cold case, with law enforcement still seeking any information that could lead to answers.

Efforts to locate Doretha have been ongoing for decades, but no significant breakthroughs have occurred. Her case, like many others from the 1980s, continues to be part of larger investigative efforts aimed at solving cold cases. Family members, friends, and investigators are still hoping that new information or advances in technology could eventually lead to a resolution.
Last Seen: Apr 3, 1989
